Summary:

"The purpose of this analysis is to shed light on the question 'Has spending $17.5 billion through the Universal Child Care Benefit delivered "choice in child care" for Canadian families? Have families' child care choices improved?' Its second purpose is to argue that Canada needs to collect appropriate data and that measuring the performance of a program is a fundamental requirement to answer questions about whether public money is effectively spent"--page 1.
